Terumah
(Note: Starting with this portion, the Torah portions become a lot more dense, explaining lots of specific rules and instructions rather than telling a story like most of the previous portions. Due to this, in these dvarim, I am not doing to explain every single detail of these portions in as much depth as the previous portions, instead I will give a short summary of what the overall topics of the portions are. There also may not be commentary for every portion (like this one) because it’s hard to find interesting things to write about in some of these portions.)
While Moses was on Mount Sinai, God told Moses to have the Israelites bring gifts for God. These gifts would be used for building the Tabernacle, a sanctuary to God. The rest of the portion is God explaining many specific instructions on how to build the Tabernacle.
